Floppy eyelid syndrome (FES) is considered a subset classification within the larger context of eyelid laxity syndromes. FES is a common yet underdiagnosed eyelid syndrome due to definitional and diagnostic challenges. There is a strong association between FES and obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). Management options include eye ointments, lubricants, other dry eye treatments, eyelid taping, eyelid shields, surgery, and treatment of OSA. This activity reviews the evaluation and treatment of FES and highlights medical and surgical treatments.
